(POLITICO) The Donald wants Bill Maher to pay up.

Maher told Jay Leno on “The Tonight Show” on Monday that he’d fork over $5 million to Trump’s charity of choice if Trump provided a copy of his birth certificate proving that he’s not “spawn of his mother having sex with orangutan.”

Maher’s offer is similar to the one Trump made in October to President Barack Obama, whom he has questioned about whether Obama was born in America, about releasing Obama’s college records.
